- Thursday, October 4, 2012, 9:00 AM Draghi: Responding to a question of whether a rate cut is even conceivable considering the "broken transmission mechanism," Draghi says the ECB's use of non-standard measures (OMT) "speaks for itself." In other words, the bank believes a rate cut will be of little use, so don't expect one. So the dollar will remain more favored than the euro as the borrowing currency for carry traders? 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, September 21, 2012, 12:41 PM An outstanding set of charts (I, II, III) from Deutsche (h/t MicroFundy) tracks the S&P, CRB, and the dollar index before and after the Fed's (now 3) QE programs. If it's true - as the charts suggest - that the effect of the drug wears off with each successive application, stocks, commodities, and currencies may not have much more in gains ahead of them. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, September 14, 2012, 7:13 AM The dollar continues a big move lower following the Fed's open-ended QE announcement and Bernanke's anything it takes as long as it takes press conference. The euro +1% to $1.3116, the aussie +0.5% to $1.06 - neither of those handles have been seen for months. The loonie +0.4% to $1.0367, a 2012 high. Comment! [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Thursday, September 13, 2012, 1:36 PM More FOMC: We'll hear more from Bernanke soon, but further reflection reveals the true power of today's QE3 announcement. By making the asset purchase program open-ended, the onus now falls onto the hawks to assemble the votes to end it. QE could be Fed policy for a very long time. Stocks, gold, silver, and currencies not nicknamed the greenback all seem to have realized this and moved sharply higher. 7 Comments [U.S. Economy]
- Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 9:19 AM It's hard to believe this is happening given what's happened in the year since S&P downgraded the U.S., but the greenback and Treasurys both sell off following the Moody's warning of a possible cut in America's credit rating. The long bond yield rises 3.5 bps to 2.84%. The bull dollar ETF: UUP -0.5% premarket. 3 Comments [U.S. Economy, Global & FX]
- Monday, September 3, 2012, 8:14 PM 'The crowded long dollar trade is no more," writes Sober Look, as CFTC data shows currency speculators last week turned net short the greenback for the first time in nearly a year. The CFTC information can be handy when it gets to extremes. A year ago, specs were leaning heavily to the short side (amidst the U.S. credit downgrade) just as the dollar was set to take off on a 9-month, 13.5% run higher. 4 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, August 31, 2012, 9:15 AM Somebody thinks the Fed is about to take steps to reverse the recent shrinkage in its balance sheet, the Dollar Bull ETF (UUP) is -0.8% premarket, a significant drop for the slow-moving index. Comment! [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, August 22, 2012, 2:35 PM Maybe biggest reaction to the dovish FOMC minutes comes from the precious metals, gold adding nearly 1% to $1,648/oz., and silver tacking on a similar amount to $29.67. GLD +0.6%, SLV +1.5%. Currencies: The euro adds 50 pips to $1.2526. The pound, aussie, yen, and loonie all get a boost as well. UUP -0.5%. 1 Comment [Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, August 20, 2012, 11:13 AM Complacency rises in the FX market, warns JPMorgan, as currency traders price in an environment leaving no margin for policy error. Dollar positioning has dropped from record long to flat, and volatility premiums have vanished. Either the global economy is better than thought and policymakers suddenly more competent, or risk is being mispriced. 3 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, August 13, 2012, 7:59 AM SA author Christian Magoon reckons Mitt Romney's choice of uber-conservative Paul Ryan as his VP running mate will "beat up the dollar" in the short term and so help gold prices to rally. That's because the choice will prompt "a national debate in the Fall highlighting the poor fiscal state of the United States." 10 Comments [U.S. Economy, Commodities]
- Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 9:13 AM "Do you know anyone who likes this thing? I don't," writes J.C. Parets, adding overwhelming bearish sentiment to the technical reasons he's expecting a big rally in the euro. Among them is a drying up in volume in FXE, suggesting the sellers are getting tired of selling, and a U.S. dollar (UUP) chart exhibiting signs of topping. 1 Comment [Global & FX, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 6:16 AM The WSJ and DJ FX Trader launch the WSJ Dollar Index. Named the BUXX, it differs from other dollar indexes by being reweighted over time to adjust for changes in the trading volume of the currencies in it. Among those it goes up against is the Dow Jones FXCM Dollar Index, in which WSJ publisher Dow Jones owns 2.6%. 1 Comment [Global & FX, U.S. Economy]
- Monday, July 2, 2012, 8:25 AM The gold ETF (GLD) saw an outflow in Q2 of 5 metric tons, the first quarterly decline in a year and against a 32-ton inflow in Q1. Shares in the ETF were off 4.3% during the period as money instead flowed into the dollar, UUP +2.6% during the same time frame. 1 Comment [Commodities]
- Friday, June 22, 2012, 3:41 PM Long dollar positions fell 43% in the week ended Tuesday, according to an analysis of Commitments of Traders data by Dow Jones, mirrored by significant decreases in euro and yen shorts. Also of interest are Swiss franc shorts, which fell 79% amidst thoughts the SNB can't sit on top of the currency much longer. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Monday, June 18, 2012, 3:47 PM The greenback is set to continue to rise in 2012, says Morgan Stanley, helped by central banks adding to their dollar reserves, which rose to 62.1% of assets at December's end from 60.5% 3 months earlier. Morgan figures this has left the private sector $2T short of what it needs. 3 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, June 15, 2012, 3:39 PM Net U.S. dollar long positions fell 3% to $39B, according to CFTC data for the week ended June 12. Everyone's favorite short, the euro saw bearish positioning cut by 9% to $30.5B. The euro is up about 350 pips this month vs. the greenback in the face of overwhelming short interest. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
